Dear Sir Edward

I now enclose an amended copy of the

Notes of the Piracy meeting which was held here

on the 13th of January. I am sorry that this has

been somewhat delayed, but I am afraid that I have

had to put it aside for more urgent work.

I also enclose copies of two draft

despatches to Hong Kong and I should be much obliged

if you would let me know whether you wish to suggest

any amendments. I am also sending copies to

the representatives of the Admiralty, Foreign Office,

War Office and Board of Trade who attended the

meeting.

When I get their replies, it is proposed

to refer the drafts officially to the Departments

concerned, inviting their concurrence.

It is also proposed to write to the

SIR R. E. STUBBS, K. C.M.G.,

Admiralty
